About Lucia
Lucia Lock is a counsellor with 12 years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the BACP, which reflects her adherence to recognised professional standards. Lucia focuses on building a calm, respectful space where people can start to talk about difficult things without feeling judged.
Her work covers a wide range of everyday and complex problems. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and trauma.
How Lucia works
Lucia also supports those facing relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, bipolar challenges, eating concerns and compassion fatigue. Lucia draws on client-centred and psychodynamic ideas to guide sessions. She listens for what matters most to the person in front of her and pays attention to patterns from past experience that affect current life.
Conversations are shaped around the client’s needs and the pace they prefer. Sessions aim to make difficult feelings easier to understand and manage. Lucia helps people spot unhelpful habits, work through shame or guilt, and find clearer ways to cope with big life changes.
She also offers support around attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, communication problems and isolation. People who choose Lucia can expect direct, warm listening and practical conversation about next steps. She collaborates on a plan that fits each person’s circumstances and goals.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the counsellor. The counsellor reflects what they hear, offers empathy and helps the client find their own solutions; this can be useful for low self-esteem, anxiety and life changes.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that come from earlier relationships and experiences. It helps people see how past events influence current feelings and choices, which can be helpful with long-standing relationship problems, attachment concerns and repeated coping issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lucia will talk through what feels useful and adapt methods to fit each person’s goals and preferences. The choice of approach is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which helps people fit therapy around work, family and travel. Video gives the closest experience to an in-person meeting; phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and messaging can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options aim to make access more flexible and to match the format that best supports each person’s needs.
